Force balance of particles trapped at fluid interfaces
Alvaro Dominguez, Martin Oettel, Siegfried Dietrich
We study the effective forces acting between colloidal particles trapped at a fluid interface which itself is exposed to a pressure field. To this end we apply what we call the ``f…
Shear flow pumping in open microfluidic systems
Markus Rauscher, S. Dietrich, Joel Koplik
We propose to drive open microfluidic systems by shear in a covering fluid layer, e.g., oil covering water-filled chemical channels. The advantages as compared to other means of pu…
Binary Reactive Adsorbate on a Random Catalytic Substrate
M. N. Popescu, S. Dietrich, G. Oshanin
We study the equilibrium properties of a model for a binary mixture of catalytically-reactive monomers adsorbed on a two-dimensional substrate decorated by randomly placed catalyti…
Depletion forces between non-spherical objects
P. -M. König, R. Roth, S. Dietrich
We extend the insertion approach for calculating depletion potentials to the case of non-spherical solutes. Instead of a brute-force calculation we suggest to employ the recently d…
Microscopic theory for interface fluctuations in binary liquid mixtures
Thorsten Hiester, S. Dietrich, Klaus Mecke
Thermally excited capillary waves at fluid interfaces in binary liquid mixtures exhibit simultaneously both density and composition fluctuations. Based on a density functional theo…
Complete Wetting of Nanosculptured Substrates
M. Tasinkevych, S. Dietrich
Complete wetting of geometrically structured substrates by one-component fluids with long-ranged interactions is studied. We consider periodic arrays of rectangular or parabolic gr…
